Alfie's Story
Alfie, a Chorkie with an enormous presence and expressive eyes, was the heart of his home, a tiny terror who ensured he was always at the center of attention. He found solace in rare moments of calm, whether sleeping peacefully or snuggled close with his first stuffed animal that once had a heartbeat, always leaning into a gentle hand on his cheek for reassurance.
— Remembered by Dawn
Lyrics
Intro - acoustic guitar, ukulele
Verse 1
A tiny terror, a fearless beast within,
With chaos hair and a joyful, wagging chin.
Your big bright eyes, a world of feeling we could see,
The absolute center, for all eternity.
You'd intervene if another dog got near,
Making sure your presence was always clear.
An enormous spirit in a body so small,
You truly gave our loving home your all.
Chorus
Oh, Alfie, our king, for two precious years we shared,
A love so bold, beyond compare.
You were the life of this house, our shining star,
No matter how near or how far.
Verse 2
Your wild energy would finally calm at night,
A sleeping pup, a truly peaceful sight.
Then morning came, with bounces and a bark,
To wake us up and leave your joyful mark.
You turned this house and all of us around,
Into your loyal subjects, on your ground.
A one-of-a-kind, so vibrant and so free,
No other pup could ever quite be thee.
Chorus
Oh, Alfie, our king, for two precious years we shared,
A love so bold, beyond compare.
You were the life of this house, our shining star,
No matter how near or how far.
Verse 3
They called you Stu, our daughters' special name,
You'd hide your treats, a mischievous, playful game.
From Rocky's stash, to Benji's tempting prize,
You'd bark and steal, with cunning in your eyes.
The couch was yours, your chosen, lofty throne,
Where you'd demand affection, never left alone.
A tiny king, who ran this house with might,
You filled our days with chaos and with light.
Bridge
"It's all okay, everything's fine," I'd softly say,
My hand upon your cheek, to chase fears away.
You'd lean into my touch, a moment pure and deep,
A precious bond we'll forever keep.
Instrumental - ukulele, piano
Final Chorus
Oh, Alfie, our king, for two precious years we shared,
A love so bold, beyond compare.
You were the life of this house, our shining star,
No matter how near or how far.
Outro
Perhaps you're mad the others get a glance,
Still craving all the joy and loving chance.
But buried safe, with plushy friend so true,
That heartbeat toy, always right next to you.
I feel your presence, waiting for my hand,
A happy spirit in a peaceful land.
Outro - guitar fade
